Straight Man Says Best Buy Employee Outed Him On Facebook During Phone Servicing

We are well aware that many of our readers have had a tough time dealing with Best Buy employees. But we're pretty sure that being outed on Facebook during the process of a phone servicing session pretty much takes the "You're Terrible With Customers" cake.

A man in Denver tells 7 News there that he brought in a cellphone to Best Buy to get fixed. He claims he was given a new phone shortly after bringing in the faulty model, and his Facebook status subsequently read, "I am gay, I'm coming out."

But wait a minute a gosh darn minute! He's straight, and he says didn't post that. He says he was logged in to Facebook when he handed over the phone he'd been having trouble with.

"The phone just started ringing constantly after that, from ex-spouse to friends," he told 7 News. "It's totally not a joke. It just put a bad taste in my mouth."
